Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.ctime' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner: "This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs, xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant filesystems. The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes. Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the client decide to invalidate the cache. Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps (e.g., backup applications). If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates. This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are actively queried. This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one. As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used. Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use coarse-grained timestamps. Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included: - Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all maintainers provided necessary Acks. - Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all callers to rely on them. Plain accesses to inode->i_ctime are now gone and it is accordingly rename to inode->__i_ctime and commented as requiring accessors. - Extend generic_fillattr() to pass in a request mask mirroring in a sense the statx() uapi. This allows callers to pass in a request mask to only get a subset of attributes filled in. - Rework timestamp updates so it's possible to drop the @now parameter the update_time() inode operation and associated helpers. - Add inode_update_timestamps() and convert all filesystems to it removing a bunch of open-coding" * tag 'v6.6-vfs.ctime' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (107 commits) btrfs: convert to multigrain timestamps ext4: switch to multigrain timestamps xfs: switch to multigrain timestamps tmpfs: add support for multigrain timestamps fs: add infrastructure for multigrain timestamps fs: drop the timespec64 argument from update_time xfs: have xfs_vn_update_time gets its own timestamp fat: make fat_update_time get its own timestamp fat: remove i_version handling from fat_update_time ubifs: have ubifs_update_time use inode_update_timestamps btrfs: have it use inode_update_timestamps fs: drop the timespec64 arg from generic_update_time fs: pass the request_mask to generic_fillattr fs: remove silly warning from current_time gfs2: fix timestamp handling on quota inodes fs: rename i_ctime field to __i_ctime selinux: convert to ctime accessor functions security: convert to ctime accessor functions apparmor: convert to ctime accessor functions sunrpc: convert to ctime accessor functions ...
